Bye bye tree bits

Dustin is a big fan of losing our Chinese Elms. I believe that is what they are called. They are very awful trees. Everytime the wind blows, they lose branches. One of them is also in large part dead. Which is not good. The part that is not dead hangs over our neighbors garage. So Keith, our friend whom is incredibly good at cutting away large bits of tree and making sure said bits don't hit anyone or anything, came over and helped cut it down. Our other friend Vinny, whom also happens to be our neighbor, also came over to do stuff. No one and nothing was hurt during this part of the tree cutting escapades.
The picture above is the before. The picture below is the after. We also cut another large section of the tree.

Oh What a Beautiful Morning!

This is what I got to wake up to today. Amazing, isn't it? It snowed last night, and the air is all crisp and fresh. Soooooo good.






In unrelated matters, Dustin came home early from work on Tuesday so he and our friend Keith cut down one of our huge trees. I love trees, and especially big trees, but these trees are a mess, and not very healthy, I think. They are all huge, and close to powerlines, homes, and other things that could easily be squished by them. So we are getting rid of all of them. It makes me sad. But we will plant other plants in their stead. The video quality really sucks. I didn't realize the big red glow was there. :P



It's all gone now. By the way kids, don't try this at home.
